First record you ever bought?

[Barcon]

Must have been his slow, moronic voice which confused me. ;-)

And here's me thinking he was talking about Neil Young.

 

[Paul Lake's Left Knee]

There was just nothing correct in your post.

London and Birmingham, easily confused, I suppose they are civilisation that just isnt seen in Oldham.

Noddy is from Walsall not Wolverhampton, Dave Hill was brought up there but was born in Devon.

Of those with Christmas hits it's Wizard who are from Birmingham, keep trying though.

So defensive :-)

So defensive :-)

No just stating facts, something that is alien to you it seems.

As a present for my 7th birthday I could choose what I wanted, No1 was Baby Come Back by The Equals but I got Hurdy Gurdy Man by Donovan

 

[Beswick Prize Bands Big Drum]

An EP by the Rolling Stones called Five by Five, it had 5 tracks on it rather than the usual four

 

[steviemc]

Video Killed The Radio Star - The Buggles.

Was a 7 inch single but had a problem with my old turnatable in that it would keep playing the same single repeatedly. After 48 hours of non-stop playing my parents almost evicted me (and I was only feckin' 10 at the time) :-)

Fair play. Don't let them give you a hard time hun :-)

First Record bought Nobody Does It Better - Carly Simon, but technically I didn't buy it I selected it and my sister paid for it.

First Record I bought on my own, in a record shop with my own money - Driving In My Car - Madness.

Good choice. Great band till Cornwell left.

Whats the story morning glory, I Got my CD player around 2 months later on my 8th birthday, With the album.

That started my genuine love of music.

I bought a few shockers along the way (with my spends), until mid 96 when Manics everything must go came out. Then that was it, I knew what music I was into.

 

[Ghandi's Flip Flops]

First record was 'Lip Up Fatty' by Bad Manners when i was around 9 years old; but i didn't buy it myself (sent my mum into Woolworth's to get it i think)

First record i bought myself was 'Happy Birthday' by Altered Images a year or so later, from the Whelan's/Morrisons in Failsworth

 

[GazM]

First LP - The Fine Art of Surfacing by The Boomtown Rats.
First single - Too Much Too Young - The Specials

Would have been late 79 / early 80. Jeez.

 

[paulbob]

James Brown - It's a Man's, Man's World. Cost me 6 shillings & 8 pence

 

[PinkFinal]

Think it was Boney M Rivers of Babylon. Then the Sex Pistols My Way. Aged ten, summer '78.

 

[Barcon]

Is there anybody else that used to nick singles out of the bargain bin in the basement of Debenhams?

 

[Citizen of Legoland]

I'm The Leader of the Gang (I Am) by Gary Glitter.

Seem to remember it cost 10p.

I'm not proud of it.

First album was Goofy Greats

 

[Why Always Ste]

Quite odd but I really enjoyed it for some reason as a 7yr old boy.


Oh yea just come back to me now.
It was used during the 1992 Olympic games and it just hit me like: Wow!
Bought it on a cassette and played it on my cheap "Ghettoblaster" lol

 

[MCFCTrick]

Single: Blockbuster by Sweet.

Album: Ride A White Swan - T.Rex.
